1. Requests for customers
We released the GOT2000 series with high functions and performance as an alternative of the GOT1000 series
in September 2013. We highly recommend that you replace the GOT1000 series with the GOT2000 series for
using new sophisticated features.
For the replacement models, refer to "Table 2-1 Recommended replacement GOT models of the GOT2000
series" in Chapter 2 below.
2. Replacement
models
"Table 2-1 Recommended replacement GOT models of the GOT2000 series" introduces recommended models
that have no or less restrictions in terms of the specifications on their replacement with the GOT2000 series.
Other models can be selected depending on the usage status in your system. Select an appropriate model after
carefully considering the range of performance in the current system.
For the precautions on the replacement, refer to each chapter and section.
2.1 GOT
Since the panel cut dimensions for the GOT2000 series are the same as those for the GOT1000 series, the
control panel is not required to be reworked. When you use GOT2000 series shown below, the required screen
design software version differs according to the model and functions. Prepare a compatible version of the screen
design software.

(3) Mounting intervals
When installing a GOT, intervals are required from other devices, as shown below.
When replacing the GOT1000 series with the GOT2000 series, mounting intervals may differ. Check the intervals
thoroughly when mounting the GOT.
When installing a communication unit or option unit on the GOT after replacement of the GOT1000 series to use
the multi-channel function, refer to user's manual of each communication unit and/or option for the dimension E.
Depending on the units or cables used for the GOT, extra intervals larger than the described dimensions may be
required. Mount the GOT with careful consideration on the connector dimensions and cable bending radius.
The following describes the difference in mounting intervals between the GOT1000 series and GOT2000 series.
When mounting the GOT, follow the dimensions on the table and keep it properly away from other devices.
The values enclosed in brackets apply when no other devices generating radiated noise, such as a contactor, or
heat is installed near the GOT. Even in that case, however, keep the ambient temperature of the GOT to 55°C or
lower.
Besides, mounting intervals A and B differ by 2 mm between the GOT1000 series and GOT2000 series. This is
because the external dimensions for GT27 and GT25 models are larger by 2 mm in the vertical (A
and B)
direction. However, the mounting intervals between mounted GOTs and other devices are the same.

(3) Measures for the precautions of 2-point press
As measures for the precautions described in section (2), consider the following when placing 2-point press
switches.
■
Do not place two or more switches inside one "2-point press inactive area".
